Santa Cruz Wedding by What Shanni Saw

October 12th. 2011 by Emilia Jane | Filed Under | 15 comments

From the moment I laid eyes on this stunning Santa Cruz wedding by What Shanni Saw I was lost in la-la land.  Give me lush, pastel floral arrangements any day of the week and I’m a happy camper.  Cafe au lait dahlias might just be my weak spot.  The pretty details don’t stop at just the centerpieces either.  This is classic, romantic goodness at its very best and I am loving every moment of it.  I’ll be in the full gallery gushing over every perfect little detail if you need me!

From What Shanni SawThere are places on this earth that are so beautiful it invigorates all of your senses and enables every ounce of you to come to life. You literally feel the beauty creep into you and take hold. It overpowers all of your conscious thoughts. You feel blessed to just be in its presence, even if you cannot claim ownership to it. Attempts are made to take hostage the smell, the sight, the feeling, if only to make you the sole owner in your memory. Just when you think nothing more could fill you, you meet someone. Someone who enables you to feel that sense of life… no matter where you are. To fall in love amongst such beauty further entwines it into your being.

For Jim and Keira, they fell in love amongst the undeniable beauty of Santa Barbara and have continued to live amongst the beauty of the California coast.  Their wedding day was nothing short of perfection.  The emotion that flooded through each individual present at Jim and Keira’s union was something that will go down in the books. Never have I seen two individuals surrounded by such overwhelming devotion and support from every single person present. Keira spent months pouring over your blog for inspiration and I was so impressed with all of the details and how it came together!

    Stunning! What is the venue? Would love to have a Santa Cruz wedding, but most of the venues didn't feel right.

    Virginia, it was at a private residence. There are a number of beautiful homes in the Santa Cruz Mountains that are available for rent for weddings. I'll see if Keira has the contact information!
